Adele News 2016: Singer Breaks Down On Stage In Belgium [VIDEO]
It looks like just about everyone in the entertainment world is still having a hard time accepting the devastating news that came out of Orlando this weekend. Not only was The Voice star Christina Grimmie shot dead by a deranged fan on Friday night, but about 50 people were killed after gunman Omar Mateen attacked clubgoers at Pulse nightclub on Saturday night, leaving at least 50 more injured in what many are calling the bloodiest mass murder the country has ever seen.
Now, plenty of celebrities are expressing their sorrow along with their anger over the events, including chart topper Adele, who broke down in tears during her concert in Antwerp, Belgium on Sunday. Police say that the two shootings are not connected.
Adele told the crowd "I'd like to start tonight by dedicating this entire show to everybody in Orlando, and at Pulse nightclub last night."
She then started to choke up after telling fans "The LGBTQI community... they're like my soul mates, since I was really young, so I'm really moved by it."
Meanwhile, comedian James Corden opened the Tony Awards with a message to those affected by the shootings by saying, "Our hearts go out to all of those affected by this atrocity. All we can say is you're not on your own right now. You're tragedy is our tragedy. Hate will never win. Together we have to make sure of that. Tonight's show stands as a symbol and a celebration of that principle."
